PC won't Boot help.

Also have you made sure to connect the power cables to the CPU area above the CPU ? AND if you have have you used both connectors or just one of them ? One is 8pin and other is 4pin. Make sure they clicked in right, sometimes they feel in but floating a bit.

Yes I know you said you tried another one. Was it known to be working? Was it out a working machine? Was it new? Has it been tested


I recently got caught out with a "known working PSU" it was in a spare system that had been working but not in use for a few months. Gave us the same symptoms we sent the board back to Asus and got told it was fine. They reflashed the bios to be on the safe side. Git it back built it up and got the same fault. Took the PSU out my lads machine and it ran.. Took my " known working PSU" and fitted it to my lads machine for it to give me the same fault!!!
 
Yeah all seated properly. Gonna leave it for tomorrow. Try swap back to old mobo and see. Then see how to update bios.

Psu working as it was pulled from a working used machine.

Yeah, I can't rule out ram yet as above poster mentioned updating bios. Gonna do a quick swap before bed. Thanks for the tips!
 
Cba.... did not work either with old motherboard. Seems like the only culprit left is the ram. Ordered some corsair sticks ffs.
 
did you get to the bottom of this? - sounds like I have the same problem.

I have been running the same setup since new, approx 1.5 years old.

In the last 6 months, intermittently my PC would not wake up after going to sleep. I would have to turn power off at PSU, wait a while then turn back on. The problem became more regular and now it wont boot.

When I power on, fans turn on, lights on mobo, ram and gpu and cpu cooler come on, but no beeps, no display on monitor and no lights on keyboard or mouse. so i cant even get in to the bios.

I have removed what components I can but dont have spare to swap in and out. I have changed ram configurations around to no avail.

Spec is

Intel i7-5820K 3.30GHz (Haswell-E) Socket LGA2011-V3 Processor - Retail (BX80648I75820K)
Avexir Core White Series 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 PC4-19200C16 2400MHz Quad Channel Kit (AVD4UZ124001608G-4
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 980Ti G1 Gaming 6144MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
Samsung 500GB 850 EVO SSD 2.5" SATA 6Gbps 32 Layer 3D V-NAND Solid State Drive (MZ-75E500B/EU)
NZXT H440 New 2015 Edition Case - White & Black
EVGA SuperNova G2 750W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply
Corsair Hydro H110i GT 280mm Extreme Performance Liquid CPU Cooler (CW-9060019-WW)
MSI X99A SLI Krait Edition Intel X99 (Socket 2011) DDR4 ATX Motherboard
MB-300-MS

Any ideas?
 
I suspect the mobo is causing all of these issues I would get a new mobo and try the rams again. I've emailed MSI about RMA they are not very helpful and said send it to us using your own delivery and cost and we will send you a refurbished one. I could have done that but I suspect a long turn around so left it and bought a gigabyte board in the end. I reckon the motherboard killed my ram, all of them.....
 
Go for the later(or last) revisions of gigabyte or Asus, not gonna bother trying anything else in the future after the msi fiasco.

If you got a mate with same platform go try the ram as I the mobo could possibly have killed the ram like mine did.
